Repair, or a full replacement?
Not every faulty remote needs replacing outright. Sometimes a battery, a new case, or re-programming solves it. Where the electronics themselves have failed, we can supply and programme a replacement remote, depending on the van.
We'll talk through what actually makes sense for your vehicle rather than jumping straight to a full replacement.
What we'll need
How a visit goes
We come to the van, check the existing key and how the locking is behaving, then supply and set up a matching remote if that's the right call. Cost depends on the vehicle and the kind of key fitted.
Makes this service covers
You can book it for any make we advertise: Ford, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Vauxhall, Renault, Nissan, Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat, Toyota, Iveco.
Van Remote Key Replacement: common questions
Can you supply a replacement remote?
Yes, for many of the vans we work with. What's available depends on make, model, year and key system, so send the details across first.
The remote died straight after a battery change — is it faulty?
Not always. Sometimes the remote just loses its programming. Tell us the van details and we'll advise.
